Indian Trail Road To Be Extended Before Winter

November 11, 1994|By Hal Dardick.

Aurora — The city hopes to extend Indian Trail Road west to Deerpath Road before winter sets in under a funding agreement approved this week.

Finance Committee Chairman Robert O'Connor said the work was expected to start Tuesday on the extension and may cost about $304,000. A local developer in the area will pick up $125,000, with the city paying the rest, O'Connor said.

The extension of Indian Trail to Deerpath is part of a multimillion dollar plan to improve the east-west thoroughfare. Other plans include a $5.6 milion extension of Indian Trail from Farnsworth Avenue to Felton Road on the east side and widening it from Orchard to Randall Roads on the west side.

Once all the work is complete, it will be a four-lane thoroughfare extending from Felton to Deerpath.
